>> well, that's the proposal that mitt romney laid out. we can talk about the math specifically. i brought you the different pieces of his tax plan that he listed. >> i like your version, all scribbled in a sharpie there, huh? >> we don't have the sharp graphics here at the campaign that you guys showed at cnn. but the fact is, in a debate in february, on your network, mitt romney said that all americans are going to get a 20% across the board tax cut, including the top 1%. it was like going on an episode of "oprah's favorite things," except instead of getting a car if you were one of the wealthiest americans, you were going to get that 20% across the board tax cut. even on the program a little bit ago, he wouldn't specify how he's going to pay for it. he won't specify those deductions. so we can't put him on this chart until he specifies how he's going to pay for that plan. >> all right. but to be fair, he has made it clear that his tax policy is for a 20% cut and elimination of deductions and loopholes. you're right, he hasn't said which ones, but it is very clear that his tax

let's talk about politics. are you an obama man. switching to mitt romney. second guest tonight. why? >> it was all about change. i went all the way down the road with obama i had my own opinions about america, flat tax, all that stuff. crazy stuff that people who know nothing about politics throw out. duh. when obama laid out the platform, change, how things would happen and four years down the road and see, you know what? didn't make a difference. maybe it's larger than he is. so i'm really looking for someone to move the needle. the ratings, unemployment. national debt. the foreign policy. somebody please get in there, use some common sense is that possible. move the needle. i don't want four years of the same. >> what do you make of america right now? >> i think we're in trouble. i think across the board, you know, with the unemployment, the poverty, focusing on different foreign countries and their problems, which in my opinion, a lot of the stuff isn't our business, you know, targeting nations and nationalities when it's just a few people, such as different terrorist groups
